Golden State's Draymond Green was ejected for a flagrant 2 foul after the third quarter of the Warriors' 105-103 win Wednesday night for throwing an elbow on a play that drew a technical on Blake Griffin, then Griffin followed him to the locker room with 10:43 remaining when he drew his second technical.
With Griffin gone, the Clippers missed several key chances in the waning moments.
Stephen Curry overcame a slow start to score seven of his 15 points over the final 3:01 to go with 11 assists. Klay Thompson finished with 23 points and David Lee had 23 points and 13 rebounds.
When the game ended, players tangled near the tunnel to the Clippers' locker room and security personnel stepped in.
